        <b>Power/Talent/Superstat Selection</b>
        <br/>
        To select a power, talent or superstat click on the according tab in the middle of the screen and select the slot in your build which you would like to fill. On the left side you will see a possible selection of powers/talents/superstats from which you can choose from. You can select powers form different pools by clicking through the tabs at the top of the screen.
        <br/>
        You will only see the powers which are available to you, depending on the powers you have chosen before.
        <br/>
        Once you selected a power and it is listed in your build, you can click on the circle in the top left corner of the power to activate it. If a power is activated all its bonuses are taken into consideration when calculating your characteristics. Talents and superstats are always activated. 
        <br/><font color="red">*note: Characteristic calculations have been discontinued.  Do not rely on the accuracy of these values.</font>
        <br/><br/>

        <b>Descriptions</b>
        <br/>
        If you move your mouse over a power/talent/superstat you will see a description in the bottom left corner which tells you what the power does. You can lock the description by right-clicking the power/talent/superstat, if a description is locked it will not change until you once again right-click the power or click on either the lock-symbol on the power or on the description.
        <br/>
        The (*)s in the advanced description mark a condition under which the according effect will occur. You can click on it to view the full description of the condition.
        <br/><br/>

        <b>Advantages and Ranks</b>
        <br/>
        To choose advantages and ranks, click on the bubbles below the power you wish to upgrade, you will then see the possible choices on the left side. You're remaining advantage points are shown in the top right corner.
        <br/><br/>

        <span style='font-size:120%'><b>Frequently Asked Questions</b></span>
        <br/><br/>

        <b>Why can I choose from all tier 1 powers at level 1 when in game I only have one choice (tier 0 damage power)?</b>
        <br/>
        You are able to respec your level 1 choice after you finish the tutorial and for the pool from which you chose the energy builder you can choose from any tier 1.
        <br/>
        Devs have stated that this is intended behaviour.
        <br/><br/>

        <b>The power description changes as soon as I move over another power, it's nearly impossible to scroll.</b>
        <br/>
        Please read the help section about descriptions

        <span style='font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:100%;color:yellow'><b>Why can't I select an advantage??</b></span>
        <br/>
        <span style='font-family:Comic Sans MS;font-size:85%;color:yellow'>There's a bug that causes powers with a lot of advanced information to not allow you to click certain advantages that make that information go over an unknown limit.  A workaround for this is to rightclick the power, locking it, and then adding the advantages.  If there is still a problem write me an e-mail to webmaster@extantforce.com, post in the <a href="http://forums.champions-online.com/showthread.php?t=116058">championBuilder thread</a> on the official co forums, write a pm or contact me ingame at @Roxstar
